Overview

I'm a native US English speaker now residing in the Federated States of Micronesia, but traveling full-time as an adventure/travel journalist and editor-for-hire. I have edited thousands of manuscripts for hundreds of publishers, authors, students, and businesspeople; am a top-rated editor/writer on numerous freelancing websites; regularly contribute to dozens of US and international publications; and serve as senior writer for the world's second largest surf/travel/lifestyle website, where my work has been read by more than 1.5 million people in the past 18 months. Regardless of your project's scope and focus, I can elevate it to the highest level through my detailed, dedicated, fastidious approach, while respecting and preserving your unique voice as an author.
